Tasty hearty food.
Definitely going to keep and try some of these recipes. Really tasty food and love the freshness and healthy dishes made. One small comment. I cook tagine a lot and there is no way that tagine was cooked with that lid on. A bigger tagine pot was needed. Some of the translation could be better.
